Yes. Much better than the last two. I see it's on Q TV a couple of times today. Next one on at 12:55pm.

It's alright, I note a rather high number of shots of the not-unpretty violinist in the string section! It's the sort of cobbled-together video you tend to get for the final single from albums, but it's pleasant enough and I think James looks good.

Yeah not bad, better than the last 2. Glad it isnt a full on live video cause that would have been lazy. Though what's the obsession with clouds boys?! And I like how it's almost an advert for the box set 'see this pretty little book, well buy THIS and you can see them up close!! BUY IT!There's thousands of them left'

I suppose it's an improvement over the previous two in that it doesn't clash horribly with the song and make it close to unwatchable/unlistenable. I think I'll leave it at that.

umm interesting but quite 'heavy'.

I've got a question, I can't catch it on the YT
between 3.30 and 3.31 there's written something, I only read 'ONLY THE WRITTEN WORD' but there were some words



but it seems it appears once more

and 0.37

and there's one flash of something somewhere between 3.07 and 3.08

any ideas?

p.s. I don't like flames. and Nicky should take his glasses off. WOW Wayne was there at least twice. AND MOLLY!!!

Very good compared to the other two, ten times better, both previous ones I thought were terrible.

Once again, could have done better.

I read the first post and thought "what, it's just still images from a gig?" but it's pretty much that channel 4 thing that came out when the album did. It's alright, yeah, it isn't just one long boring shot (YLA) and it's edited well and fast with other bits so it's good for a 3rd single I like it, probably watch it a few times. Gonna pre-order the single too after I watch it

Aye, typical end of campaign video, but it's nice enough and pisses all over SKON from an almighty height.
Could have been edited a bit better and with less violinist shots, and it's a shame it's not from a gig where there was a bit more life in the crowd, but I think it'll do. At least it isn't another amateur Patrick Jones abortion.

Little expense and better than the previous two videos, hey? Good job they didn't do a video based on a postcard's adventure to the recipient.
